"I...I f***ing..."
Ning Liu stared dumbfounded at the tens of thousands of shimmering fragments before him, a curse stuck in his throat, unable to be uttered.
I'm so upset!
He originally wanted to upgrade his sword, but instead, he ruined it completely.
What kind of mess is this?!
If he had known this would happen, he would have been better off smashing that "Atlas of the Gods"!
Even if you don't manage to make anything interesting, at least you won't suffer any losses!
"System! Come out here! What kind of broken hammer is this! Pay for my sword!"
Ning Liu roared madly in his heart.
However, the system remained aloof and silent.
Just as Ning Liu was on the verge of tears, feeling like he had lost a hundred million, the fragments floating in the air underwent a strange change.
Buzz—
All the fragments, as if drawn by some mysterious force, began to slowly converge towards the center.
Instead of merging immediately, they spun rapidly in the air along an elusive trajectory, forming a dazzling vortex of light.
A sword intent even sharper than the previous Asura Demon Sword emanated from the center of the vortex.
Ning Liu was stunned, and the grief and indignation on his face were gradually replaced by astonishment.
"This...this is...destruction followed by reconstruction?"
He thought of a possibility, and his heart started pounding wildly again.
What Ning Liu didn't expect was yet!
His martial spirit, the Empty Dream Sword, actually manifested on its own at this moment!
Then, the Empty Dream Sword faced the vortex and spontaneously displayed its ethereal sword intent.
The vortex of light spun faster and faster, and finally, with a clang like a dragon's roar, all the fragments suddenly shrank inward and, together with the Empty Dream Sword, reformed into the shape of a sword!
That was a brand new sword!
Its blade is longer and more streamlined and perfect than before.
The Asura Demon Sword is gone!
Is Ning Liu's Empty Dream Sword Martial Soul all that remains?
No, it's not the Empty Dream Sword anymore!
The characters "空梦" (empty dream) on the sword guard have also changed.
It's no longer two characters, but four characters:
"Empty Dream Slayer God!"
An aura surpassing that of ordinary divine artifacts emanated from this brand-new sword!
Ning Liu simply looked at it, and information about the sword automatically appeared before his eyes.
【Item Name: Dream-Slaying God Sword】
[Type: Super Artifact (Growth Type)]
[Super Divine Skill: Slash Across Myriad Realms.]
[Effect: After locking onto a target, it ignores distance and barriers in any plane or space, unleashing a guaranteed strike imbued with the laws of "termination" and "slaughter." This strike cannot be blocked or dodged; it can only be taken head-on.]
"Gulp."
Ning Liu looked at this series of ridiculously high attribute descriptions and swallowed hard.
He felt like he was about to stop breathing.
A super...super artifact?!
And it's a growth-oriented one!
This isn't just an upgrade, it's like taking a rocket to heaven!
The first soul skill, "Slash of Myriad Realms," is the ultimate evolution of "Instant Slash of Void Trace."
It not only ignores space, but also "dimensional barriers"!
This means that even if Tang San hides to the ends of the earth, as long as Ning Liu can lock onto his aura, he can stab him with a single sword strike!
"This...this is fucking insane!"
Ning Liu gripped the brand-new sword, trembling with excitement.
As he held the sword, a warm yet powerful force emanated from it, perfectly resonating with his soul.
He could feel that the power contained within this sword was as vast as the starry sea.
He can't even exert one percent of its power now.
"A super artifact with growth potential..."
Ning Liu looked at these words with burning passion in his eyes.
This means that as he continues to grow stronger, the sword will also grow stronger along with him!
Its ultimate goal may even surpass the Asura Divine Sword, reaching a height that even a God King cannot imagine!
"Hahaha! Hahahaha!"
Ning Liu could no longer contain his joy and burst into laughter.
The previous frustration and heartache vanished, replaced by unparalleled excitement and satisfaction!
That hammer blow was totally worth it!
"Tang San, Tang San, what do you have to fight me with?"
...
While Ning Liu was overjoyed with his new weapon, the outside world was also in turmoil because of his series of actions.
First is Poison Douluo Dugu Bo.
This newly promoted level 99 peerless Douluo immediately demonstrated astonishing action after receiving Ning Liu's promise of "unlimited resource supply".
He went directly to the newly established "Resource Allocation Department" of the Federation and showed Ning Liu's warrant.
"Starting today, across the entire Federation, we will acquire all toxic substances! Regardless of cost, we will take as many as possible!"
The moment this order was issued, the entire underworld and mercenary community of the Federation went mad.
Countless Soul Masters and adventurers who made a living by gathering herbs and searching for treasures flocked to the swamps, forests, and mountains filled with deadly poison, just like sharks that had smelled blood.
In an instant, all sorts of rare and precious poisonous herbs and insects on the continent, as well as poisonous ores that no one dared to touch before, were discovered at an unprecedented speed and then continuously transported to Soto City and delivered to Dugu Bo's hands.
Dugu Bo specially created a "Pool of Ten Thousand Poisons" next to the medicine garden in Liulitian.
His daily work involved sitting cross-legged by the Pool of Ten Thousand Poisons, categorizing and throwing in the newly delivered poisons, and then using his divine power to refine and absorb them.
His aura, too, grew more unfathomable day by day during this process.
The emerald green snake-shaped mark on his forehead was also getting brighter and brighter.
Everyone knows that this once feared Poison Douluo is marching triumphantly down a path they cannot comprehend—a path leading to godhood.
Meanwhile, all the elders of Liuli Heaven, including Yang Wudi, Niu Gao, and Bai He, the patriarchs of the four single-attribute clans, were also secretly summoned by Ning Liu.
No one knows what they talked about.
All that is known is that after they came out of Ning Liu's study, they were all like they had been injected with chicken blood, their faces showing a mixture of shock, ecstasy, and disbelief.
That same day, Yang Wudi announced his seclusion, handing over all affairs of the Po clan to his son.
Niu Gao and Bai He followed suit.
Bai Chenxiang of the Min clan was urgently summoned back from Shrek Academy by Bai He, seemingly to receive some important inheritance.
Everyone sensed something unusual.
Liulitian, this behemoth that has become the heart of the Federation, seems to be brewing a world-shaking internal transformation.
A grand plan to "mass-produce gods," spearheaded by Ning Liu himself, has quietly begun.
